Examples of My Drama

On Monday, my three year old woke me up to the tune of "mommy, my ear hurts." Being the experienced mommy, I suspected an ear infection when I discovered a temperature of 101.5. Well, I called the doctor, and he wasn't able to "fit her in". I gave her a little motrin and some ear drops to numb the pain, grabbed a flash light for a little look.

Oh my goodness at the earwax she had. I called the doctor back and they referred me to an ENT. I was given an appointment of 3:30. We arrived 15 minutes prior, filled out the paperwork and was called back to await the arrival of the all knowing ear doctor.

Upon his arrival, he looked into her ear that wasn't hurting, then the ear that was hurting and said. "Whew, we need to clean these little suckers out." At which time we were taken to another room where there was a contraption not unlike the xray machine at the dentists office, but with some binoculars instead of the xray thingy. He proceeded to pull goop out of the good ear and then turn to the bad ear. Then made the statement "Well, before I can see what we have in here I have to get this rock out of the way."
:
"Excuse me? A what? You're kidding right?" that's me. Well, he wasn't kidding. Come to find out the rock had been in her ear more than 2 weeks. Poor little thing. Those rocks in her head are falling out one by one.
